Hotels Near Bockenheimer Wochenmarkt in Frankfurt

I was staying here for a conference in the Messe Congres Center, which is at 500 meters. I travelled by train to the Frankfurt central system, at 1,5 km walking, perfect! Although this is a big hotel, I never got the feeling that it was busy or crowded, but the hotel has a relaxed atmosphere. The room and bathroom and very nice, clean and modern, have some complementary coffee and water and mine offered a nice view over de city (7th floor). WiFi connectivity was a bit hard to figure out, just use the username/password on your room key, but speed is excellent. I used the wellness at night after diner, which is modern and clean, not crowded at all. There are slippers, bath robes and towels at your service. Great to relax after a busy work day.

What can be said about the location that hasn't been said yet? Frankfurt'S maim station area is horrible. There's nobody injecting drugs on the street in front of the hotel (that happens 300m away), but was offered to buy drugs around the corner. The hotel looks modern. Check in was reasonably efficient and friendly. Single room is very small, the modern bathroom is larger than the bedroom. Slow-ish but free wifi. Room is pretty worn, dirty corners here and there in the bathroom. Very unpleasant smell from the drain in the bathroom. My room was facing the courtyard so no traffic noise, but antisocial riff-raff in neighboring houses making noise at 6am on a Saturday, really great. A/C can only be turned on or off, temperature is set to a ridiculous 16C and can't be changed by user. Cleaning crew (three Indian guys) took forever to get to my room in the 5th floor, usually around 2pm, when I was in. Overall decent for the money, but lots of drawbacks.

The location is a bit rough but they do a great job keeping everything clean and cozy. Water in the shower needs a few minutes to get hot but it works fine. Good for solo travellers who don’t mind the location.

Arrived at hotel at 07.15 am on Thursday 21st Sept after a horrendous journey only to find out I had booked the previous night. Chap on reception was fantastic, switched our booking and managed to get us rooms with no charge. Hotel is in a fantastic location, right across from main train station. Doesn't look much from outside, but rooms are great and well fitted out. Staff superb.

Wow- My visit started with the most facetious, arrogant, condescending harridan I've ever had the misfortune to encounter at any hotel, ever. Baffling how such an obnoxious person is employed in the hospitality industry. I could write an entire review based on how horrible this person is, but it would likely be banned by Tripadvisor, so let's move on! However, the other staff member I met was the most awesome ever- and totally went above and beyond to ensure my A&O visit went as smooth as possible. (You know who you are- Thank You!!!) As for my lodging- I was relegated to an annex outside the main building, which was not too bad as the weather was agreeable. But having to walk outside to the reception, lounge, (closed) kitchen or breakfast area in the rain or snow would have been quite unacceptable. Like all A&Os the interior was spotless. My dorm however faced an open lane/parking area often populated by drunk vagrants- or maybe drunk guests. The ground was littered with beer bottles, cigarette butts, and smelly stains (you can figure that one out!). One of the few downsides about A&Os is that six bed dorms are often two pairs of bunks, and two single beds pushed together. Those two beds seems to come with a single locker, so the dorm may be lacking in that regard. The en-suite was great though- spacious and separate rooms for toilet and shower, both with sinks, lots of hot water and even a towel warmer. So yes, as I write the covid thing is still real, and precautions must be taken for the sake of the staff and guests. Which brings me to the only thing I could not abide: despite the hostel being nowhere near full, they seemed to pack each dorm to full capacity before opening another. As they say, there is a reason for everything. But if they want to take covid seriously, my hunch says fewer guests in more dorms might be safer. Especially when the common area washrooms are shuttered- what the heck!? To sum it all up- this may not sound like the best review, but I do generally recommend A&O Galluswarte. Someday when covid is a thing of the past and operations are back to normal, I hope to stay here again.

A clean hotel with a good location near the station. Our room was on the 6th floor and thus we had a great view of the Skyline. The room was clean and adequately large. The station environment ok, but we were just sleeping there.

Best hotel ive ever stayed in. Best location you could ever ask for. Just across the platform1 of the main train station. If your train arrives at platform1 you will arrive at the hotel in 30 seconds. Super safe. Very bright room. Will always stay here.

This is a 100% honest review. And i will try to write as much to help other Customers who are looking for Hotels to book. I know how hard it is to read Reviews and all, but i hope this will help. This Hotel has the best service of all! From the Valet Parking, to the Receptionist (who speaks perfect English), to the Room! ROOM: First impression in entering the room, was.. WOW. IT SMELLS CLEAN AND GOOD! It is big enough for 2. They provided us 2 free Water Bottles, they have Shampoos, Body Soap, and Lotion. The Pillows are Comfortable, Bed is really Big (but don’t expect too much) it is just good enough to sleep. If you’re looking for EXTRA comfort for sleeping, this is not the one for you. They have Airconditioning (which is really important), and it works PERFECT! BREAKFAST BUFFET: They have wonderful WAITERS AND WAITRESSES! They will go extra mile for you like when you get your Coffee yourself, they will offer to do it for you. It gives a lot of choices when it comes to Food. Their FOOD is superb! I still can’t get over with the Waffles 😅 it is true that it’s a little bit Pricey, but if you’re a Breakfast Person, i would highly recommend you to get this one! 😊 Overall experience, it was excellent!

I am still staying at the hotel and my experience so far has been absolutely horrible. The checkin was so slow and the male receptionist was disinterested for any greetings let alone offering any help with baggage . Sent me through wrong side of the lift and had to take stairs to get to my room it would have been easier if I was advised to take only 3 steps of stairs and the then the lift which opens right outside the room I was allocated. The cleaning standards of the hotel are awful on next level. The room is so dirty , the corners are filthy and the situation under the beds is disgusting. The housekeeper enter your room to verify if you are staying over rather than checking the system at the reception. The cleaners seem bothered when you ask them to refresh your room and they don’t greet you at all. It’s like I always have to remind twice if I need something. Customer service runs in negative not even zero . I made the biggest mistake of choosing this hostel /hotel , I have never experienced this bad hotel in my life. My recommendation, spend a little more and book somewhere where the staff actually wants to work. Well apart from greeted by a lovely lady receptionist on Saturday evening , the day I checked in ,,, nothing is right about my stay.
